can we claim on the insurance policy?

[lynne192]

Sadly our dog was killed in an accident about 2-3weeks ago, i was clearing out his paper work etc and came across an insurance policy we had got when we got him chip which was about 3weeks before the accident, we got a free insurance policy up until 17th feb 2011, sadly our collie was killed on 16th feb 2011, the accident wasn't preventable, but the policy says we could claim if he died? if i had not found the paper work i wouldn't have even know about this but does anyone know if we can claim and if so if they would/should pay out? it says a death due to injury would be up to £1,000... we're not looking for that, if we got anything then would use it to put stuff on his grave etc. anyone know anything about this?

If your dog died before the 17th feb then you can claim, if you've still got the cover note. Is it with petplan ?

They will only pay out the value/what you paid for your dog, you will of filled in this ammount when you first filled in the forms
